GRINDING OLD WHEAT.
The Flour Market Good But the
Output Light.

The Northwestern Miller will review
the -four market as follows:
A loss of two or three days by as many
mills had the effect of reducing the flour
output last week slightly, but it was of gen.
erous proportions. The total product of
the week ending Sept. 10 was $50, 100 bar
rels-averaging %, or barrels daily-against
157 400 barrels the previous week, and 142,
500 for the corresponding time in 1886.
Two less mills are in operation this week,
the Columbia and Phoenix having dropped
out for repairs. This leaves seventeen
running. Owing TO break in the East side
dam, caused by the big saw-mill fire Satur-
running to waste with the result of very
poor power, and a more extensive use of
steam has followed. The leakage is being
checked, however, and good power is
looked for toward the end of the week. 1t is
difficult to estimate the present output of
flour, so irregular are operations, but it will
probably average in the neighborhood of
10000 barrels. From Sept % to 26
most of the West side mills, if not
all, will be closed down for the
cleaning of the canal Millers continue to
grind old wheat mostly, some of them having
hardly touched the new crop as yet. The
flour market is firm and healthy and fairly
active. The mills are pretty well loaded up
with orders for old wheat -four, and, with
purchasers pressing them for the delivery of
keep prices well up. In consequence, the
movement is rather more restricted than for
some time past. The direct exports of flour
last week were much lighter. being $1,000
barrels, against 90, 600 barrels the preceding
week.

A Negro Makes Fiendish Assault
Upon Young Woman.


There seems to be perfect epidemic
OF crimes against women. Yesterday a
revolving case, in which young woman
was assaulted in a daStardly manner
by negro, came to light. The victim,
Louise Kagel, is twenty years old, and
has been employed as a domestic by II.
i. LamerauX, the proprietor of the Silver
Safe saloon at 405 NicOllet avenue.
She Is preposSeSSing in appearance, and
bears a good reputation. He story is
that Saturday afternoon Willis Golfer,
negro employed about the place, came
into the basement where she was work
mg-he had evidently been drinking
and made indecent proposals. She at
tempted to repulSe his OvertureS, when
he caught hold of her and at
tempted to tear her clothing from
her person. She was very much fright
ened, and fought him until she felt her
strength going. Fortunately at this
point she managed to get hold of a
butcher knife. and Slashed away at him
so vigorously that he deSiSted and ran
away. She was almost completely pros
trated, but managed to get to her room
at 3l4 Second avenue south, where her
sister rooms with her. She told her
story after some persuasion, but was
so overcome with grief and shame
that she could not be induced to take
any steps towards prosecuting the
black tiend. Mr.. LamerauX was in
formed of what had happened, but the
girl so dreaded publicity that he took
no steps to have Golfer arrested. The
affair came to the ears of E. A. Bassett,
who is employed as detective
by the White Cross society, who
swore out a warrant yesterday
upon which Inspector Hazard last
night arrested Golfer in @. res
taurant at the rear of II Washington
avenue south. He is mulatto, about
thirty years of age and has worked at
the Silver Safe for the past three years.
He had previously confessed his crime
and made no denial of it last night. He
bears the marks OH his wrist and face
where he was struck by the knife. He
had bottle of glycerine in his pocket
when arrested, which he undertook to
throw away. The story told of the as
sault is as tragic as the recent Murray
and Reid cases. The girl says the negro
threw her down OH the floor twice and
bit her hands.

The Hennepin Avenue Theater.

Work is still progressing rapidly in
the Hennepin Avenue theater, and the
advance sale at the West hotel still con-
tinues large. The opening night prom
iSes to be the most brilliant gathering
a double bill will be presented, The
Merchant of Venice with Mr.. Booth
as Shylock, and The Kings Pleasure"
with Mr.. Barrett as Gringoire. The lat
ter play is little gem. OF its merits,
the New York Herald says:
THE Kings Pleasure is an exquisite YER
sion of an exquisite piece. 1t has been done
into English of the antique style by Alfred
Thompson. poet and an artist, and the Ian
guage of the adaptation is in no degree in
ferior to the language of the original More
over the costumes are so designed, ana the
piece so placed upon the boards SO as to pre-
sent vivid reproduction of the times of King
Louis IN.
Gringoire is the strolling poet of the day.
He is hungry and in rags. He has written
satirical verses about the royal orchard,
where men are hanging on the trees, and their
bones are bleaching in the wind. And the
king. taking his ease in the house of a rich
burgher of Tours, has the starveling in, and
with the odor of rich viands temptS him to
recite his gibbet song.
''Thou art a knavish poet" cries the king
in wrath: ''yet if with thy verses thou canSt
win the heart of this rich burgher's daughter
thou shalt have her and dowry; If not, thou
shalt be hanged" So GringOire, ditfdent
and shy, approaches sweet Loyse, the burgh-
ers daughter; tells her how he sings of the
wrongs that the poor suffer; tells her how his
heart is enlisted in their behalf. And 10,
when the king comes back to hang Grin
goire the miracle is accomplished and the
maiden loves her poet.
1t is the Coquelins part. 1t is softer and
more human than any other part assumed by
the famous comedian of the Theater Fran
cais And being softer and more human, it
is singularly well adapted to the style of
Lawrence Barrett, who has rarely been in
these scenes Of Alternate sebing and starV
ing, of satirical recitation and of tender WOO
ing.
"The Kings Pleasure" will be the
one intaglio of romanticism in this
weeks classic repertoire.

Franklin Avenue Bridge.

The council committee on roads and
bridges, at its meeting yesterday, con-
sidered the bids for building the super
structure of the Franklin avenue bridge.
The lowest bidder was Horace E.. HOr-
ton, whose bid was $Se,OOO, but on ac-
count of the slow progress of the steel
arch bridge, which is being built by
Horton, the committee recommends
that the contract be let to the King
Bridge company of Cleveland, o., their
bid of sS1 800 being the next lowest bid.
A proviso was that in case the bridge
was not finished by June 1, 1888, the
contractor should forfeit $3.50 day fol
every day thereafter until finished.

afternoon. The witnesses present were
mainly police officers. but nothing could
be learned of them. There is a growing
suspicion that the subject of ''bed

consequence several parties known to
be interested in the disreputable places
were sauntering around in search of any

A DOMESTIC JAR.
Mrs. Delvina RObillard Wants to
Be Single Once More.

Delvina Robillard has begun divorce
proceedings against Amedee Robillard,
and in Der complaint charges cruel and
inhuman treatment and failure to sup
port. The parties were married in Min

was eighteen years of age and Mr.. RObil-
lard twenty-eight. In 1886 Amedee be-
gan course of cruel treatment toward
his wife, so she says, and frequently

her husband has considerable property,
and she wants share of it, together
with the two children.
